The Advanced Hearing Aid Centre is your helping hand in getting on the road to tinnitus treatment and living stress-free.

WHAT IS TINNITUS?

Tinnitus is described as a constant buzzing or ringing sound in the ear. It can be experienced in one or both ears and has many different causes. While it sounds strange, tinnitus is surprisingly common and in some cases, it’s only temporary. If left unattended, it can affect your concentration, lead to anxiety and cause a lack of sleep, so tinnitus treatment by a specialist is highly recommended.

POSSIBLE CAUSES OF TINNITUS

• Aging and associated hearing loss
• Certain medications
• Wax blockage
• Ear or sinus infections
• Repeated exposure to noise
• Stress
